Ambassadors
Goff Ambassadors is an opportunity for any Goff student looking to give back, join a community, and be part of Goff’s development and growth. Goff Ambassadors receive exclusive invitations and opportunities, Goff branded apparel, after-hours access to the Goff Loft, and a network of Goff Grads, professionals, and more. Applications for Ambassadors are currently closed. If you have questions, please email our Goff student associate, Shannon Yanes.
Casebusters
Casebusters is a strategy-based discussion that will help you broaden your thinking and understand the real root of a problem. Through Casebusters, you will learn how to create and understand a problem statement, ask questions, and provide recommendations for a company with the guidance of the Goff team and past Goff students. Is your club interested in collaborating on a Casebusters event? Please reach out to Cameron Nelson.
Case Competitions
Case competitions are real-world challenges that provide students with an opportunity to work in teams, ask questions of experts, and create solutions to the actual problems companies and organizations face.
If you are looking for hands-on learning experiences and have a competitive side, gather a team and register for the next Goff Case Competition. If you are interested, please reach out to Goffslc@eccles.utah.edu

Make an Impact
After his experience in Explorers and Trailblazers, Yash Vyas was hired to plan events for prospective Goff students. Yash embraced the challenge and developed Casebusters, a creative workshop where prospective Goff students take a real classroom project from a community partner and break it down over an hour with help from Goff students.
Yash demonstrated value creation by bringing Goff elements of hands-on learning, real-world problem solving, and teamwork to interested students to truly demonstrate what Goff is all about.
